Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup turbinado cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/8 cup food-grade lavender buds
  • 1 cup oatmilk or milk of your choice
  • 3.5 cups hot water
  • 4 tbsp finely ground espresso
  • ice or coffee cubes

Instructions
 

  • Combine the turbinado cane sugar, water, and lavender buds in a small saucepan. Heat over medium low heat until the mixture begins to boil, then turn the heat to low and allow to simmer for an additional 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Pour the lavender syrup through a fine mesh strainer to remove all the pieces of lavender and allow to cool. You can store the homemade lavender syrup in a small glass jar in the fridge for up to 10 days.
  • Combine the hot water and espresso in a French press and allow to sit for approximately 6 minutes. Push the plunger down and pour the coffee into an alternate container for storage. Coffee brewed with this method stays fresh stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Fill a tall glass with iced, followed by approximately 1/4 cup of coffee or a couple of espresso shots if you have an espresso machine. Next, add 1 tablespoon of the lavender syrup, pour in the milk, and stir gently. Enjoy!
